Image:MG SV-R.jpg[edit]
Thanks for uploading Image:MG SV-R.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. PS2pcGAMER (talk) 09:20, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:NRN cover.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

Speedy deletion of "Big Picture (teaching resource)"[edit]
A page you created, Big Picture (teaching resource), has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is obvious advertising or promotional material.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thanks. Thingg⊕⊗ 16:37, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free media (File:Big Picture cover on How we Look.jpg)[edit]
Thanks for uploading File:Big Picture cover on How we Look.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:05, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
I'm not sure if I'm having a conversation with a automated robot or a human being, but I'll carry on regardless. Big Picture is a free resource for teachers - and all the materials are subject to the Wellcome Trust's open access policy - so I have resubmitted the image and placed it under the category of GFDL. Hopefully, this satisfies the concerns you have over the inclusion of this image.
I have tagged this image as needing confirmation of its license. Be aware that "open access" is not necessarily the same as a free license such as the GFDL. The terms at http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/About-this-site/Disclaimer/index.htm do not appear to qualify as a free license - free content (in the Wikimedia sense) must be usable by anyone, for any purpose, which includes commercially, or modifying the material. --dave pape (talk) 19:41, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Dave - thanks for your reply. It is possible the website wording has not changed to reflect current practice - I know that the Wellcome Trust is keen to have its material used without restriction so I'll try to establish if this extends to future commercial use. Do you know if GFDL also means that the content is usable without attribution? Hugh
Edits to Wellcome Trust[edit]
Some of your edits to the Wellcome Trust article appear to introduce content taken from the web pages of the trust. This edit, in particular, adds a lot of apparently copyrighted material. Can you can confirm that you have authorisation from the Trust to add such material? NotFromUtrecht (talk) 10:06, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- Just seen your comments above about the Wellcome Trust site being released under a Creative Commons license. Probably best to discuss the issues that this raises on the article talk page: Talk:Wellcome_Trust#Material_from_Wellcome_Trust_website. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 10:13, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
